Watch Apple make the case.

Apple's own films for the iPhone Duo. Three minutes of hinge, and the event recap if you missed the keynote.

Videos load from YouTube only once you press play, so nothing is requested from Google until you ask for it. Watch on YouTube →

05 — Trade-in

What's your old phone worth?

Apple's trade-in is convenient. It's rarely the highest offer. Get quotes from five buyers at once and pick the winner.

Trade-in quotes for a foldable are moving fast and we are checking every buyer before we publish a number. The comparison opens once the figures hold up.

07 — Accessories

iPhone Duo accessories that actually fit.

Cases, screen film, chargers, and pencils built for a folding iPhone — not slapped-together adapters. Curated, updated weekly.

We are testing cases, films, chargers and stands on the Duo itself before recommending any of them. The list opens as soon as the first ones arrive.

08 — Insurance

Break it. Cry once.

A foldable has twice as much to snap. iPhone Duo insurance costs less than you'd think — if you look past AppleCare.

Cover for a folding phone is priced differently by every insurer, and nobody has published final terms for the Duo yet. We will list them here once the numbers are real.

10 — FAQ

iPhone Duo questions, answered.

The things people are actually asking on launch day. Updated as Apple confirms details.

When can I pre-order the iPhone Duo?
Pre-orders open on 16 October 2026 at 5:00 a.m. Pacific, which is 14:00 in central Europe. The phone ships on 23 October.
How much does the iPhone Duo cost?
$1,999 for 256 GB, $2,199 for 512 GB, $2,599 for 1 TB and $3,199 for 2 TB. Carrier trade-in promotions can bring the effective price under $1,000 — see the Deals section above.
Where can I buy the iPhone Duo?
Directly from Apple, and from Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile in the US, from 23 October. Our Deals table ranks the offers by real out-of-pocket cost and updates daily.
Does the iPhone Duo have Face ID?
No. Apple has confirmed Touch ID built into the side button, which works whether the phone is open or closed. There is no Face ID on this model.
How big is the iPhone Duo, and how much does it weigh?
It weighs 254 g and measures 117.8 by 84.1 by 11.3 mm folded. Opened, it is 5.2 mm thick — the thinnest iPhone Apple has made.
Is the folding screen durable?
The frame is Grade 5 titanium, the front and back are Ceramic Shield 2, and the body is rated IP68 to 6 metres for 30 minutes. The inner display is still softer than glass, so a case and a screen film are worth it.
What chip and battery does it have?
The A20 Pro, with a 6-core CPU, a 7-core GPU and two 16-core Neural Engines. Apple quotes up to 44 hours of video on the cover screen and 31 hours on the inner one, with 50% charge in about 20 minutes.
Will my iPhone 17 case or accessories fit?
No. The Duo is an entirely new shape. See the Accessories section for products actually built for it.
